Four masked thieves attempted to rob Princess Bride Diamonds at Bella Terra Shopping Center in Huntington Beach, California, USA. The customer in the jewelry store was terrified as one of the robbers broke the glass counter with jewelry and gold in his hand using a hammer. Three people, including a jeweler employee and two store owners, immediately attacked the robbers and stopped the robbery.
Sarah Baca, the store owner Dallas Baca’s sister, who intervened with the robbers with a stool in her hand, told the local press that the jeweler is a family business and said, “This is our family business that we want to protect. We feel very strongly about protecting what is ours.”
According to reports, the robbers hit Dallas Baca in the head with a hammer, leaving him with minor injuries. Approximately $7,700 in property was reportedly stolen during the robbery. The robbers have yet to be apprehended by police.
